In war & in peace, the 20th century was the Roosevelt century. From Theodore Roosevelt’s Square Deal & battles with the plutocrats of the Gilded Age, to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal & wartime leadership, to Eleanor Roosevelt’s pivotal work on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights & vital role in the Civil Rights movement, their crusades dramatically reshaped the political & moral landscape of our nation. Illuminates the intertwining lives of these leaders who became America’s most powerful advocates for social & economic justice. Explores how Theodore’s example of dynamic leadership would inspire the careers of his distant cousin Franklin & his niece Eleanor. “A gripping narrative of three of America’s greatest leaders.” Photos.
